What's new

Hi folks!

I'm Jim and I live in Berkeley, California – a small city tucked into the heart of the San Francisco Bay Area.

We are not in the midst of war, as the picture might suggest. There is major construction going on for a new Energy Research Institute. Still, it's a cool site to behold!

I grew up here and still find so many fun and new things to experience!

If you’d like to visit check out my Berkeley page and allow me the pleasure of welcoming you to the area! I'll try to add more information about the University of California at Berkeley campus for those coming for school too.

I enjoy hearing from all parts of the world, so please feel free to drop a line anytime!

About me

A recent trip to Kauai

I spent most of my childhood here and hope to come up with a homepage here that will provide lots of useful and fun information for visitors around the world. It's a work in progress..... Please send a note and let me know what you would like to see!

Hobbies

After a hard workout

Besides meeting people and traveling --

I distract myself with tons of hobbies, including sports. I gravitate to tennis during the summer months and hope to make good on my new year's resolution to get in better shape.

Here I am after a recent body-building workout at the terracotta factory near Xian, China.

More hobbies - Cooking, cocktails, and consuming..

I love trying out different international recipes. Being from the Bay Area, I have easy access to ingredients and recipe ideas; especially from Thailand, India, and the Middle East.

I am always looking for more ideas, so please pass along your favorite recipes! I also enjoy trying out different cocktail recipes during "happy hour".

Berkeley interests

A Charming Home in the North Berkeley Hills

I enjoy hiking throughout the North Berkeley Hills. There are many charming homes in a wide variety of styles.

I hope to add pics of the wide variety of architectural styles in the near future.

Hey Jim. Thanks for visiting my Melaka page. We had a wonderful time there! :o) Yes, the island that we visited, Pulau Tioman was very safe! Really laid back and kind of rustic. We just loved it! Have a look at my page if you have time :o) Cheers, Ann xx
